Dragon Quest has held its number one position in the Japanese software chart for another week, with Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker on PSP clinging as well to the number two spot.
The top ten saw two new entries - Hakuouki: Yuugi Roku on PSP, which entered at number five, and 2010 FIFA World Cup: South Africa, which made its debut at number 10.
The rest of the highest placed games were largely unchanged from last week, with New Super Mario Bros Wii sticking at number three, and Friend Collection remaining at four.
